O Casalinho do Diabo

de Jerónimo Rocha

Portugal, 1932, algures entre Trás-os-Montes e as Beiras. Sebastião é um pirralho que vive fascinado pelo conto d’O CASALINHO DO DIABO: dois carrapatos que vêm de noite buscar as alminhas daqueles que se recusam a dormir. Após um bizarro acontecimento na aldeia que o rapaz atribui ao parzinho diabólico, Sebastião parte montes fora, numa aventura repleta de mitos e lendas do folclore Português.

Protótipo de Livro Digital Animado, escrito e ilustrado por Jerónimo Rocha, com a direção de animação de João Miguel Real. Com a voz de Isabel Abreu, sonoplastia de António Porém Pires (Walla Collective), programação de Sketchpixel e Produção Executiva de Maria Manuel.
